Mac runs V-carve using Crossover!

Post by Hooper »

I have been running V-carve in windowz on my Mac for a couple years, but the other day I bought a suite of mac apps, and one was Crossover (https://www.codeweavers.com/products)
I installed Crossover, and downloaded the V-carve installer, with little hope this would work but low and behold it works great! It runs way faster than running windowz on my Mac via Parallels. Best part is Crossover is only $59. Having Windowz on my mac opens me up to more viruses and the possibility of loosing my mac files also. Since Crossover is neither Mac or PC, but it's own creation i feel much safer.

UPDATE!
Looks like i was all excited for nothing. While all the tools work, I am unable to access any menu items. I will update this thread if I find a workaround. :(
